Hi,

The only reference in the Lippincott book is the following:

Esther (Shinn) b. ca. 1792 m1 Samuel Busby m2 Moses Shinn

nothing else is mentioned about Samuel and there are no children listed. I
DO
know that Judith Olsen did a follow-up volume but I don't have that one.
This
one only covers 5 generations from Abigail and Richard Lippincott. I am sure
someone online will have it.

Good luck!
